HLSCC Classics to Feature Duo on Piano, Cello
A duo on piano
and cello will be featured at the next H. Lavity Stoutt Community College
concert on Friday, November 14 at the Paraquita Bay Auditorium.
Pianist, Svetlana
Gorokhovich, and Cellist, Andrey Tchekmazov, are both world-renowned musicians
based in New York, and their performance on Friday at the College will be a “Classics”
concert.
Hailed by critics as an extraordinary
musician, cellist Tchekmazov is known for his versatility as a soloist,
recitalist and chamber musician. He has performed extensively throughout North
and South America, Europe, Russia and Asia, appearing at venues such as the
Great Hall of Moscow Conservatory, Osaka Symphony Hall in Japan, New York’s
Alice Tully Hall, and Brazil’s Sala Cecilia Mereles, and playing with orchestras
including the Sao Paolo Symphony, the Moscow Chamber Orchestra, the Kiev
Philharmonic and the Teatro Alfa Symphony.
Since his critically acclaimed debut at
Carnegie’s Weill Recital Hall, Tchekmazov has enjoyed an active career as
recitalist and chamber musician.He is
an active educator and a founding member of the New York Lyric Chamber Players,
and performs with the New York Jupiter Symphony Chamber Players.
Born in Russia, Svetlana Gorokhovich received
her music training at the Kazan State Conservatory. She earned her Ph.D. from
St. Petersburg State Conservatory and, in 1989, immigrated to America where she
continued performing solo recitals, piano duos and chamber music concerts in
major concert halls in the United States, Italy, Japan, Iceland and Canada. She
has made a number of recordings with acclaimed violinists, including Dmitri
Berlinsky, Eva Ingolfsdottir, and her sister Liliya Khobotkova.
She also loves to teach and has become a
highly sought-after teacher and coach.
“I am interested in discovering
students’ personalities and helping them release their fullest potential,” says
Gorokhovich. “I try to balance strictness and discipline with encouragement and
inspiration. My goal is to ignite a passion for music in students, so that
music becomes an integral part of their lives.”
Gorokhovich has previously performed in
the British Virgin Islands alongside her sister Liliya Khobotkova.
Friday’s concert will begin at the usual time of
8:00 p.m. Tickets are $20 (or $25 at the door) for adults, $10 for staff of
